Magic Can Change Someone - Chapter 6
Natsu x Mirajane x Erza
When Acnologia attacked it broke. The seal that kept his true magic away broke, his magic changed. His flames grew stronger, he became smarter, he understood what Mirajane and Erza meant. The real Natsu Dragneel has returned. Now it's time to understand who he is, who was his parents, and find out how did Makarov and Mavis know them?
"The day will consist of one event and a battle. As for the rules, each team will earn points depending on how they place in the event, and each team may choose one member to compete. In the battles, the sponsors will have a right to choose fighting pairs, the losing fighter earning 0 points whilst the winner gets 10; 5 each in the case of a draw." Matzo announced as he started to explain the rules and how the first day will work.
"Let the first game begin! Please send out your participant!" Matzo yelled through out the arena of the cheering people.
"Let me show you why Mermaid Heel will win!" Beth screamed as she left Mermaid Heel's area and walked towards the middle of the arena where Mato was standing.
"Hm.. I guess it's time! It's wild!" Jãger said and walked out of Quatro Cerberus's area.
"Raven Tail will easily win.." Nullpudding said and walked out towards Mato.
"Let us shine! Blue Pegasus will show you all how to win!" Eve announced and joined everyone walking towards Mato.
"I think it's time to squash the weaklings.." Rufus said and walked towards Mato from Sabertooths area.
"I will win this for Juvia!" Lyon screamed and waved towards Juvia as he left the Lamia Scale's area.
"Heh! There's no way I'll let you win Lyon!" Gray yelled at Lyon and smirked. Gray then started running towards Mato from Fairy Tail A.
"Well.. guess ill go." Gajeel muttered and smiled at his opponents walked to the middle.
"And here they come! 8 wizards, one from each representing guild. Once they get here I'll announce the rules." Mato screamed at the cheering crowd.
All 8 wizards arrived at Mato and stood in a circle around him.
"Let's explain the first event and the rules. First...!" Mato started to say but everyone watched the arena change. A massive city was built In front everyone with magic.
"Hey where did everyone go?" Gray asked as he looked around and couldn't see anyone.
"Alright this is weird.." Gajeel muttered and looked around at the city appearing around him.
"All wizards, the rules are that each member must find their opponents and hit them, but nobody knows where the others are. Whoever launches an attack first gains one point and the one who is hit loses one point, thus the game becomes hide and seek. To make matters harder, numerous clones of each contestant will walk around the city to confuse everyone. Attacking a clone will result in a one point deduction. Now that the rules have been explained, let the game begin!" Mato said as he explained the rules to the cheering crowd and 8 particpants through magic,
"3!" Mato announced.
"2!" The crowd of cheering fans joined in with Mato and counted down.
"1!" Mato and everyone cheered.
"Go!"
As soon as Mato said 'go' the city was filled with copies of all 8 particpants.
Sniff sniff.
"Too easy!" Gajeel laughed and went running to the side with his nose sniffing. He was easily able to distinguish who's fake and who's real.
"Let's see.. How can I tell who is the real one.." Gray said as he started to think.
"It's easy.. just lose!" Nullpudding screamed. Gray looked up to see Nullpudding over him and about to hit him.
"Raven Tail starts things off! Raven Tail scores the first point!" Mato announced through out the arena.
"Damn.. Gray, you better get your shit together.." Gajeel muttered and continued to follow his target.
"Fairy Tail B earns a point! Gajeel took out Beth from Mermaid Heel!" Mato announced.
"Damn.. looks like Gajeel is getting ahead! Time for my come-." Gray started to say.
"And Raven Tail takes another point!" Mato announced as Nullpudding took Gray out.
"Are you kidding me? He's only targeting me!" Gray screaming in frustration.
"Boom another point for Fairy Tail Team B! Gajeel took out Jãger!"
"Not wild!" Jãger cried.
"Gehe! This is too easy. It's like stealing candy from a baby!" Gajeel screamed as he laughed and went for another opponent.
"I see.." Rufus said as he stood in the air. He was looking down at the 7 other participants.
"Ouch! Eve from Blue Pegasus goes down a point to negative 1!" Mato announced.
"O come on! Why are you after me?" Gray asked as Nullpudding once again appeared where Gray was.
"What? Is there a problem? I love fighting faires." Nullpudding said as he went to punch Gray.
"Fairy Tail Team B takes another point!"
"W-what?" Gray asked as Nullpudding disappeared in front of his face.
"Gehe! Thanks for the point!" Gajeel laughed as he looked at Gray and then turned his arm into a sword. Gajeel then went to hit Gray.
"He-." Gray started to say but got taken out by Gajeel.
"Another point for Fairy Tail team B. They're in the lead by two points now!" Mato announced.
"Sabertooth.. From what I know they were the top dog last year. Yet they haven't even earned a single point yet.." Gajeel said as he started to looked around.
"Hmm.. Looks like someone is starting to figure it out.." Rufus laughed and smiled.
"It's time then! Memory Make Magic!" Rufus announced and a large circle appeared behind him.
"What the?" Gajeel said as he looked up to see Rufus in the sky.
"What's going on?" Gray asked as he looked up.
"Hmm? Damn it, I need to find Gray!" Lyon muttered as he looked up to see Rufus.
"Memory-Make: A Night of Falling Stars!" Rufus screamed and 7 yellow blasts came from his magic all aiming at someone.
"7 points! Sabertooth takes the lead as Rufus wipes out all participants on the field!" Mato screamed as he was surprised at what Sabertooth did.
"Damn.." Gajeel muttered and sniffed the air once again. "I'll get your for that!" Gajeel then said and went running towards Rufus's smell.
"Damn.. Negative one point. Time to get ahead!" Gray screamed and started running again. It just wasn't his day.
"Hehe.." Nullpudding said as he dropped right behind Gray as he wasn't looking.
Nullpudding went to hit Gray but it turned into a mist.
"W-what?" Nullpudding asked as he looked around curious of what happened.
"Raven Tail loses a point for hitting a clone of Gray!" Mato announced to every and the cloud.
"Don't underestimate me!" Gray yelled and punched Nullpudding.
"Fairy Tail A gets it's first point and is now no longer negative!" Mato said as everyone in Fairy Tail sighed in a relief.
"5 minutes to go!" Mato announced.
"Damn.. Time to get some points. Can't let Sabertooth beat us!" Gajeel screamed and ran straight at Eve. "Hey eve!" Gajeel yelled.
Eve made a mistake and looked at Gajeel.
"Another point for Fairy Tail B! And Blue Pegasus goes down to negative two points!" Mato announced as the crowd cheered.
"Sabertooth takes another point. They're up to eight points!" Math screamed out of excitement.
"And time! That's it! The winner for the first challenge is Sabertooth!" Mato told the cheering crowd. "In second we have Fairy Tail B and in third we have Raven Tail." Mato announced to the cheering fans the top 3 winners.

"Welcome back everyone! I hoped your small break was nice because it's time for the second event! The event you've all been waiting for! Battle Segments!" Mato screamed into the crowd as the cheering grew louder.
"Oww!" Natsu moaned as he covered his ears.
"Gah! God damn it hurts!" Gajeel muttered as he joined Natsu and covered his ears.
"It's not that bad.." Laxus said as he smiled. His earphones saved his ears from being torn apart by the cheering.
"Now remember these matches will be picked by the sponsors. So let's see who the first match will be!" Mato exclaimed and waited to be told what the first match was going to be.
"Here we are! We've got it! The first match will be Lucy from Fairy Tail A vs Flare from Raven Tail." Mato yelled and the fans tarted cheering.
"This won't be good. Raven Tail has been only aiming for us since this tournament started." Natsu sighed as he stayed in his area with Team Fairy Tail B.
"She's lost this match unless she's severely trained herself.." Gajeel sighed and closed his eyes. This was going to be a beat down and Lucy was going to be the one being beaten.
"Let's hope for the best then." Erza sighed as she didn't want to admit it but it was true. She then sat next to Natsu.
"Go Lucy!" people from Fairy Tail called out from the crowd. Fairy Tail was cheering her on.
"Alright! Here they come!" Mato yelled and everyone watched as Lucy and Flare walked out of there areas and walked to the middle of the arena field.
"On go, you fight." Mato explained as he flew up into the air and went to a spot where he was safe away for the battle.
"3!" Mato screamed and the crowd became excited.
"2!" everyone in the crowd screamed.
"1." again everyone in the crowd screamed.
"Go!" Mato screamed and the fight begun.
"Lets start this off good! Open the gate of Scorpion: Scorpio and open the gate of Golden Bull: Taurus!" Lucy yelled and summoned two of her celestial spirits.
"Lets have some fun!" Flare giggled and her red hair started rising. "Hair Magic!" Flare then screamed and her red hair went straight to Lucy. Her hair then started to grab Lucy.
"Hair Shower: Wolf Fang!" Flare screamed as Lucy broke free of Flare's hair and got away. Flare's hair then turned into a red wolf.
"What.." Lucy shockingly said as she looked at the Flare's hair turning into a wolf.
"Lets go!" Flare screamed and the wolf ran to Lucy and grabbed hold of her.
"Scorpio, Taurus!" Lucy yelled.
"Anything for you, Ms. Lucy!" Taurus screamed and ran to cut Flare's hair as he easily understood to help Lucy. Scorpio followed him behind to help out.
"No no." Flare said as she waved her finger back in forth in front of Lucy, Taurus, and Scorpio. "Dont use magic or she gets it." Flare stated and secretly pointed at the stands.
Lucy looked up where Flare pointed and saw the main group of Fairy Tail still cheering for her. But she also saw Asuka and Flare's Hair tightly wrapped around her small leg.
"Use magic and she gets it." Flare stated and evilly smiled at Lucy. Flares hair then broke into 5 different parts and started wrapping around Lucy's legs, arms, and mouth.
"Lets starts by making that Fairy Tail symbol of yours into a nicer one. Raven Tail's." Flare laughed as she made a Raven Tail symbol and it started to smoke. As she brought it cloee to Lucy's hand where her Fairy Tail symbol was Flair screamed in pain.
Both Flare and Lucy looked up to see Gray. He had frozen the hair wrapped around Asuka and broke it off.
"Return! Open the gate of the twins: Gemi and Mini!" Lucy yelled and returned Scorpio and Taurus while she summed Gemi and Mini. Gemi and Mini then flew to Flare and hit her head to break Lucy free.
"Alright Gemi and Mini! Lets try our new spell!" Lucy yelled and Gemi and Mini came up to her. Gemi and Mini then transformed into Lucy.
"O wow! There's now two Lucy's!" Mato screamed as he watched the match.
"Lets go! Urano Metria!" both Lucy's yelled as they started a spell they had been both working on.
"W-what is this?" Flare asked as she looked around and saw the colorful balls of energy go everywhere around the arena.
"T-this is Urani Metria!" Hibiki from Blue Pegasus muttered in shock. He had right away recognized it.
"N-no..." Lucy muttered as the spell for some reason stopped.
The second Lucy which was Gemi and Mini then transformed back into Gemi and Mini, then disappeared back into their gate. The real Lucy then collapsed onto the floor.
"Well.. that was awfully short. But it seems we have our winner! Flare from Raven Tail!" Mato screamed into the cheering crowd but the crowd then started to boo at Lucy.
"Well.. it seems the crowd didn't like the battle being so short. But don't fret! Another battle is getting ready to start!" Mato yelled to the crowd and the crowd started to cheer.
"Why.." Lucy muttered as she was too weak and drained out of magic to even stand.
"Come on.." Gray muttered as he walked into the arena and went to Lucy. He then picked Lucy up and brought her to the infirmary room.
"Well you've all seen them! In the first match Flare from Raven Tail defeated Lucy from Fairy Tail, the second match Ren from Blue Pegasus defeated Araña from Mermaid Heel, and the third match Ogra from Sabertooth defeating Warcry from Quatro Cerberus. But now we have the fourth battle! Lamia Scale vs Fairy Tail B!" Mato announced and then waited to be told from the sponsors who would fight next.
"The sponsors have chosen! It will be Jura from Lamia Scale vs Cana from Fairy Tail B!" Mato screamed as the crowd erupted in cheering.
"What.." Cana muttered as she dropped beer glass from her hand.
"But, but you've got to be kidding me! Jura is a wizard Saint!" Mirajane yelled.
"Damn it... this sucks!" Gajeel yelled and punched the wall which made a hole.
"Good luck.." Laxus muttered and looked at the shaking Cana.
"You can do it!" Fairy Tail yelled from the crowds of cheering people.
"Yeah.. lets go! For Fairy Tail!" Cana yelled and grabbed her barrel of beer and ran out to the middle of the arena. She at least had a plan of what to do.
"Of course she brought her beer.." Macao sighed from where all the members of Fairy Tail was in the stands.
"Well I'm glad you are at least willing to fight." Jura exclaimed as he walked up the middle of the arena where Cana was already at.
"Of course, I'm a Fairy Tail wizard." Cana replied.
"Like the last battle, on go you start fighting!" Mato exclaimed and started flying away.
"3!" The crowd cheered.
"2!" Mato joined the crowd and yelled.
1!"
"Go!"
Jura jumped back away from Cana and was ready for an attack but stopped and his jaw dropped. Cana was still standing there drinking her beer and not caring.
"Want some?" Cana asked Jura.
"Why..?" Jura asked back. He wanted to know why Cana didn't move, it made him curious.
"What do you mean why?" Cana replied.
"Why didn't you move?" Jura asked.
"Easy, this fight is already done." Cana smiled at Jura and replied to him. She then drank more of her beer.
"What do you mean this fight is already done?" Jura was confused and asked.
"I lost. You won this fight as soon as your name was called. I have no chance at beating you and I know that." Cana happily smiled.
"I see. A wizard who knows when to fight and when to stand down. A smart choice." Jura exclaimed and smiled as he walked to Cana.
Cana then handed him her barrel of beer. Jura drank some out of it and thanked her as she turned around and left.
"Well.. that was the shortest fight we've had yet.." Mato cried.
"It might've been short, but Cana made the right decision." Master Makarov muttered to himself in the stands. He understood clearly what Cana had done. There was no possible way Cana would've won that fight.
"Well with that lame of an ending, that ends day one of the Grand Magic Games!" Mato yelled and the crowd burst in cheering as the first day ended.
All of Fairy Tail started walking back to there temporary house.

"The wind.. It's nice right?" a woman who was now only wearing black with a hood asked Natsu. Natsu was relaxing on the bar's roof again. But not alone. Mirajane and Erza were both curled up with him.
Natsu, Mirajane, and Erza all three turned around to see a woman, but the main detail that shook Mirajane's and Erza's mind was the woman's hair. It was pink.
"Mom.." Natsu whispered under his breath.
"So you remembered my smell. That's good, you'll be able to find me easier." the woman replied and undid her hood. She then sat down in front of Natsu, Mirajane, and Erza.
"So.. you must be her. Natsu's mother.." Erza muttered as she continued to look at the woman. Her eyes were black like Natsu, her hair matched his perfectly, and their faces a looked very similar.
"That I am." the woman smiled.
"Can we know your name?" Mirajane asked Natsu's mother as she listened to what she said.
"It's Haru." the women smiled and revealed her name to them. She no longer had to hide it.
"Haru.. Spring.. Natsu.. Summer. So that's where he got his name." Erza giggled.
"You're right." Haru joined in with Erza and giggled.
"So what's my real last name?" Natsu asked as he was curious and finally knew his mother's name.
"Why do you want to know? Its not like you're gonna change your last name." Haru smiled and laughed even more.
"Yeah I won't.. but still." Natsu sighed and asked again.
"The three of you should know my last name very well. The first uses it." Haru smiled at Natsu, Mirajane, and Erza.
"Vermillion.." Mirajane whispered in shock.
"Yup." Haru happily replied.
"Wait.. that means.." Erza started to say but got cut off.
"Yes. Mavis Vermillion, the first Master of Fairy Tail, is Natsu's grandmother and my mother." Haru explained and continued to smile at all three of them like a mother who is trying to help her children.
"W-what!" Erza yelled.
"That's a lot to take in.." Natsu muttered and started to think.
"Yeah it is.." Mirajane replied.
"Wait.. then who's my biological father?" Natsu asked as he continued to think and wanted to ask more questions.
"Well.. that's not something I can say untill he comes to you." Haru sighed.
"Yes wait for know. You've already given them a lot of new information, I think it's time for you to go back to hiding, Haru." Master Makarov ordered as he came from the door. He was waiting there from the beginning of the conservation. But stayed quiet as he wanted Natsu, Erza, and Mirajane to learn some more information. A few details every day. Master Makarov then walked downstairs and left.
"Alright.." Haru replied and got up to leave.
"Wait.." Natsu asked and stood up. Natsu then surprisingly walked up to her and hugged her.
A tear rolled down Haru's face. "Thank You.." Haru whsipered and kissed her son on his cheek. She then backed up and jumped from the roof as she disappeared.
"That was cute of you, Natsu." Mirajane said as she hugged Natsu from behind him.
"Yeah.." Natsu happily smiled. He finally had a real mother.
"Come on.. it's getting late." Erza yawned and went up to Natsu. Erza then rested her head on Natsu's muscular shoulder.
"I could fall asleep here.." Mirajane whispered because of Natsu's warmth and how she was hugging Natsu.
"Yeah.." Erza replied and agreed with Mirajane.
"Come on.. if I have to carry one of you, i'm taking something from you then bringing you to bed." Natsu playfully told them and tried to move. He then noticed he made the wrong choice. He now had two women smiling and pretending to be asleep.
"Welp i'm not getting any sleep tonight." Natsu said aloud and picked up Mirajane and Erza. One on each shoulder.
If there were anyone near their room early that night someone would've heard two women moaning.
